Recruiting studies
- NCT07483710Recruiting
CT scan muscle test in ICU for septic shock
This study looks at whether a CT scan of the lower back muscle, taken when you first arrive in the intensive care unit for septic shock, can help predict recovery three months later. It may help doctors better understand how muscle health affects survival.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT06365476Recruiting
Shockwave therapy for arm stiffness after stroke
This trial tests whether shockwave therapy (gentle sound waves) can help relax stiff wrist and finger muscles after a stroke. It is for adults who have had one stroke and have noticeable muscle tightness in their arm.
Taipei, TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06369818Recruiting
Heart output measurement in shock patients on life support
This study tests if a new way of measuring heart function (using sound waves and breath analysis) works well in patients who are in severe heart failure and need a heart-lung machine. It might help doctors better monitor patients after heart surgery.
MünsterAges 18 years+ - NCT06422975Recruiting
Shock treatment with vasopressin registry study
This study tracks people in shock who are treated with a drug called vasopressin in the operating room or intensive care unit. The goal is to see how well this treatment works in real-world situations.
A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT06438224Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for hand function after burn and nerve injury
This trial tests if a special type of sound wave therapy (ESWT) can help restore hand movement and feeling in people who have nerve damage and thick scars from a burn on their dominant hand. It may offer a new way to improve hand function after a burn injury.
SeoulAges 18–75 - NCT06475456Recruiting
Italian Pilot Study of Cardiogenic Shock Treatment
This study tracks how well people with cardiogenic shock (a life-threatening drop in blood flow after a heart attack or heart failure worsening) do when treated with modern support devices and medicines.
ChivassoAges 18–75 - NCT06481410Recruiting
Methylene blue for severe septic shock
This trial is testing whether a medication called methylene blue can help people with severe septic shock who are already on strong blood pressure support (norepinephrine). The goal is to see if it improves survival and reduces the need for other treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges Any age - NCT06491745Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for frozen shoulder
This study tests whether adding shock wave therapy to standard treatments (physical therapy and a corticosteroid injection) helps people with frozen shoulder recover faster. If you have significant shoulder stiffness and pain, you might benefit from this extra treatment.
TaipeiAges 20–80 - NCT06499467Recruiting
Comparing second blood pressure medicines for septic shock
This trial tests different combinations of blood pressure medicines given to patients on a breathing machine who have septic shock. The goal is to find the best dose of a second medicine when norepinephrine alone isn't enough.
Lucknow, Uttar PradeshAges 18–80 - NCT06500156Recruiting
Metabolic patterns in septic shock patients
This study looks at how the body uses energy (metabolism) in people with septic shock. It collects information from standard monitoring during a fluid challenge (a small IV fluid test) to find patterns that might help doctors better understand and treat septic shock.
Sabadell, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06535503Recruiting
Heart attack with shock: Study of patient outcomes in Abu Dhabi
This study looks at the medical records of people who had a severe heart attack (STEMI) that caused cardiogenic shock. Researchers want to understand how these patients did during their hospital stay to improve care in the future.
Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi EmirateAges 18 years+ - NCT06539234Recruiting
Testing angiotensin II for vasoplegic shock
This trial gives a drug called angiotensin II to people in vasoplegic shock (a type of shock where blood vessels stay too relaxed despite other medicines). It tests how the drug affects a kidney-related hormone (renin) and if it can help raise blood pressure.
MariborAges 18 years+ - NCT06545838Recruiting
Testing renin levels to predict septic shock severity
This trial checks if a blood test measuring renin (a kidney hormone) can help predict how severe septic shock will be and how well patients recover. It looks for early clues in ICU patients with sepsis.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06568744Recruiting
Fluid safety limits study for septic shock patients
This trial tests whether using specific safety signals can prevent harm from too much fluid given during septic shock. It may help guide doctors to stop fluids at the right time.
QuillotaAges 18–100 - NCT06572826Recruiting
Cardiac rehab after cardiogenic shock recovery
This study looks at whether a cardiac rehab program (exercise and education) can help people recover after being treated for cardiogenic shock, a life-threatening condition where the heart suddenly can't pump enough blood.
MilanAges 18–110 - NCT06572995Recruiting
Fluid monitoring during septic shock recovery
This study is for adults in the intensive care unit with septic shock (a severe infection that drops blood pressure). It looks at how well your body holds fluid and whether treatment can be safely reduced.
BrestAges 18–99 - NCT06587009Recruiting
Shock Wave Treatment for Rotator Cuff Tears
This study tests if shock wave therapy (a non-invasive treatment using sound waves) helps people with rotator cuff tears who choose not to have surgery. The goal is to see if it improves shoulder function and pain during a structured rehab program.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 17–75 - NCT06587399Recruiting
Manual Therapy vs. Shock Waves for Shoulder Pain
This study compares two non-surgical treatments—manual therapy (hands-on techniques) and radial shock wave therapy (sound wave pulses)—to see which works better for long-lasting shoulder pain. It may be a good fit if your pain is from a common cause called impingement syndrome.
Alcalá de Henares, MadridAges 18–80 - NCT06638268Recruiting
TAVI for severe aortic stenosis in cardiogenic shock
This study tests whether a procedure called TAVI (a valve replacement done through a tube in the leg) can help people with severe aortic stenosis who are in cardiogenic shock, a dangerous condition where the heart can't pump enough blood. The goal is to see if urgent valve replacement improves survival.
Copenhagen OAges Any age - NCT06670963RecruitingPhase 4
Epoetin alfa and iron for anemia in sepsis
This trial tests whether a combination of epoetin alfa (a medicine that boosts red blood cell production) and iron derisomaltose (an iron supplement) can safely treat anemia in people with sepsis or septic shock. It may help improve your energy and recovery.
KatowiceAges 18 years+ - NCT06674785Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for shoulder spasticity after stroke
This trial tests if shock wave therapy can reduce shoulder stiffness caused by a stroke. It may help improve shoulder movement and daily comfort.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06692855Recruiting
Frailty score's role in predicting outcomes for cardiogenic shock
This study looks at whether a simple frailty score (measuring how well someone can function) can help predict recovery for people hospitalized with cardiogenic shock, a condition where the heart suddenly can't pump enough blood.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06696235RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing fast vs standard kidney therapy for heart shock patients on ECMO
This trial tests whether starting kidney replacement therapy faster or at the usual time improves outcomes for people with severe heart failure (cardiogenic shock) who are on a heart-lung machine (ECMO) and develop sudden kidney injury.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06697093Recruiting
Polish registry for cardiogenic shock patients
This trial is a registry that collects information on diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes for people with cardiogenic shock (when the heart can't pump enough blood to the body). It may help doctors learn more about this condition and how to treat it better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for shock?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 328 recruiting shock studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a shock trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a shock trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
